Shadow Clones...a love - hate relationship

I have not had a lot of opportunity to see the Crusader clones in action.

That’s the whole issue. Two of the three Crusader’s clone variants will disappear a couple of seconds after they’re spawned. It was reported on the PTR, I reported it on Day 1 of the season going live…

Season 22 - Shadow Clones - Crusader

When the Crusader hero clicks a pylon and receives one of the Shadow Clone variants which has the Falling Sword ability, sometimes the clone will leap into the sky, but never come down again. This causes the clone to disappear, regardless of how much of the one minute duration they have left. As two of the three Crusader clone variants have Falling Sword, this leads to 2/3 of the clones despawning early.

And after a couple of weeks, I tried this…

Crusader Shadow Clones - Will you be fixing these?

The season’s been running for two weeks. I wonder, are there any plans for you to actually fix the shadow clones for the Crusader class, where two of the variants disappear within seconds of being spawned, due to them using the Falling Sword ability, and never coming back down from the sky… If it’s not possible to resolve the issue with the Falling Sword ability, could you at least make it so only the variant with Blessed Shield (the one variant that doesn’t use Falling Sword) is spawned? A…

Basically, Blizzard don’t care that the clones are broken for one of the classes.
